Using the convenient Digital C4FM features

About the Digital Group ID (DG-ID) feature

Digital Group ID (DG-ID) function allows using the two-digit ID numbers to communicate only with specific group members. The desired DG-ID number from 00 to 99 is set in advance by all the group members. This ID number may be set separately for transmit and receive, when the same ID number is set for both transmit and receive, only group members with the same ID number will be heard. This feature may be used to limit com- munication only to group members that have the same DG-ID number. The GM function may also be utilized to automatically monitor whether or not group member stations with the same DG-ID number are operating within communication range.

The DG-ID number 00 detects signals with all ID numbers. Normally setting the ID number to “00” for both transmit and receive will permit reception of the signals from all other stations using the digital C4FM mode, regardless of the transmit DG-ID number settings of the other stations. Also note that when the receive DG-ID number of the transceiver is set to a DG-ID number other than “00”, received signals that do not have the same DG-ID number may not be heard.

2. When accessing a C4FM digital repeater controlled by a DG-ID number, set the transmit DG-ID number of the FTM-300DR/DE to that of the repeater input. Even in that case, if the receive DG-ID number of the FTM-300DR/DE is set to “00”, all the downlink signals from the repeater may be received.

Communicating with the DG-ID feature

•Digital C4FM mode transceivers compatible with the DG-ID function are required in order to

utilize this function.

•If the firmware is not compatible with the DG-ID function, update to the latest firmware to use

the DG-ID function. The latest firmware is available on the YAESU website.

zTone Calling (1750 Hz)

If your transceiver is FTM-300DE (European version), press and hold in the [P4] key on the microphone (in factory default setting) to generates a 1750 Hz burst tone to access the European repeater. The transmitter will automatically be activated, and a 1750 Hz audio tone will be superimposed on the carrier. Once access to the repeater has been gained, you may release the switch, and use the switch for activating the transmitter thereafter. If you need to access the repeaters which requires a 1750 Hz burst tone for access by the FTM-300DR (USA/Asian versions), you can set the program key on the microphone to serve as a “T-CALL” key instead. To change the configuration of this switch, use setup menu [CONFIG]→[10 MIC PROGRAM KEY].

munication system which expands the range of amateur radio communications by con- necting with a local WIRES-X Node station. The FTM-300DR/DE can communicate and exchange data via the internet with WIRES-X nodes worldwide. Use the News Station function to write (upload) and read (download) digital data (text, images and audio). When connected to a WIRES-X node station or room, the node name, room name, call sign of the other station, distance, and direction, are all displayed on this screen.

For details, refer to the separate WIRES-X Instruction Manual which is available on the Yaesu website.

APRS (Automatic Packet Reporting System) function

The FTM-300DR/DE uses a GPS receiver to acquire and display its position location information. The APRS feature uses the location information to transmit the position in- formation, data and messages, using the format developed by Bob Bruninga WB4APR. Upon receiving an APRS report from a remote station, the direction and distance to the remote station from your station, the speed of the remote station, and other data sent by the remote station may be displayed on the LCD of your transceiver. Setting several station parameters, such as the call sign and symbol is required before using the APRS function (initial settings).

For details, refer to the APRS Function Instruction Manual which is available on the Yaesu website.

About internal spurious signals

Certain frequency combinations of signals received simultaneously, may cause some effect on the receiver mixer and IF circuits due to the high frequency of the internal oscillator. However, this is not a malfunction (refer to the calculation formulas below: n is any integer). Depending on the combination of the frequencies received at the same time, there may also be fluctuations in the receiver sensitivity.

zReception frequency = 16 MHz x n times zReception frequency = 12 MHz x n times zReception frequency = 57.6 MHz x n times zReception frequency = 44 MHz x n times zReception frequency = 19.2 MHz x n times zUpper (Band A) frequency = (Lower (Band B) frequency ± 57.15 MHz) × n times zLower (Band B) frequency = (Upper (Band A) frequency ± 58.05 MHz) × n times
